Averting biodiversity collapse in tropical forest protected areas
The Importance of Land-Use Legacies to Ecology and Conservation
Recognition of the importance of land-use history and its legacies in most ecological systems has been a major factor driving the recent focus on human activity as a legitimate and essential subject of environmental science. Ecologists, conservationists, and natural resource policymakers now recognize that the legacies of land-use activities continue to influence ecosystem structure and function for decades or centuries—or even longer—after those…
Local financial benefits of rain forests: Comparative evidence from Amerindian societies in Bolivia and Honduras

Eighty Tawahka Indians (Honduras) from two villages with different degrees of exposure to the market took tests to measure their knowledge of local rain forest pla…
